Hi, My name is Greg Whitfield and my family lives in the wonderful seaside village of Barwon Heads in Victoria, Australia. We are a small family of four (wife Tracey and daughter Audrey, 8 years old and cat Willow). We are travelling to Europe to meet up with some friends for a week in early July and are looking for house sitting opportunities on either side of this. We have also house sat a number of times for friends in Australia. We have hosted exchange students and au pairs at our house for a number of years and would love the opportunity to reciprocate with our European host at some stage

Why we want to house sit

We have travelled a fair bit throughout Asia and Europe. However, we have always done this as a'tourist' , generally only staying a day or so at each destination. We have a desire to see a destination differently, by basing ourselves in a particular area and 'living like a local' for a time.

Our experience

We currently have a pet cat, Willow, who is a 2 year old Burmese. She is very much loved and looked after. Both my wife and I have had various other pets, dog and cats, over the years.

This sit wasn’t the smoothest but all worked out in the end. Linus took a while to come home when we got back but was probably just keeping out of the sun. We would have liked some water left out for him in the garden, even though he doesn’t normally drink it, the weather was such that he may have needed it. The house was lovely and tidy on our return but we were left with 2 weeks without anywhere to put recyclables as the bin wasn’t put out for collection. Never mind, these aren’t tragedies. We were extremely grateful to have our garden watered during the heatwave so thank you for sitting. Happy travels.

Greg and his family did a great job of looking after our pets and home while we were away. We got the chance to meet them before we flew off on holiday, and our cats took to them straight away. Jags was especially fond of Tracey and was hugging her from the word go! It was obvious how much they all loved cats which was very reassuring. Greg & Tracey kept in regular contact with us while we were away, raising any queries and keeping us updated on how the cats were. We returned home to a spotless tidy house, exactly as we had left it. Great people, it was lovely to meet them. Did everything we asked of them while we were away. We would have no hesitation recommending them as house sitters.

I have known Greg for almost 15 years. He has looked after our house on numerous occasions when we were away. In the time I have known Greg, I have found him to be honest, trustworthy and loyal. He is reliable and has looked after our house as if it were his own. We have always returned to the house in the way it was left. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Greg to anyone.
